Does TurboCNC do tool path planning?  I currently have a machine with EMC
on it, it does not do any path planning.  EMC, as near as I can tell, only
interprets g-code and runs the steppers.  The g-code must be generated by
another program that does everything else.  I have not found a Linux
program that does everything.  It would be nice to have something that
could read the dxf files and run the machine from it.
